identification parade, the Israelis
detained the 16 who are suspected
of subversive activities. In another
refugee camp, Jebaliya, an armed
terrorist was killed during an en-
counter with an Israeli army pa-
trol. Three other terrorists es-
caped and searches were conduct-
ed to catch them.
Defense Minister Moshe Dayan
has given permission for the
first political meeting of West
Bank Arab notables since the
1967 Six-Day War. Dayan was
reported to have informed the
mayors of towns in Judaea and
Samaria that they may convene
a large gathering to discuss
"whatever it deemed fit."
Sheikh Mohammed Ali Jaabari,
mayor of Hebron, has confirmed
that a gathering "will be held"
though the time and place have
not been decided. The projected
meeting will be an outgrowth of
the first conference of West Bank
mayors held at Beit Sahur two
weeks ago. The agenda of that
meeting was limited to the Arab
League's threat to boycott prod-
ucts from the West Bank and Gaza
Strip exported to neighboring Arab
states.
